You could compile the packages and use "guix gc --references" to check which of the inputs are used. Two basic situations could occur: - Essentially all inputs of qtbase are also needed for the other packages. Then in this special case, I think it does not matter too much to have added a few additional inputs, which in any case will have no effect on the build result or on installations. - Only qtbase is used as an input, and the occasional additional one. Then I would add the inputs one by one by hand, until the package builds. I think that the first case is more likely, and would be happy with you pushing the packages then. Andreas
